First Time EQ player with starting questions

[One Tin Soldier]

I wish you could have played here when P99 was new. It would have been so much better for you. That was back in 2009 I think. So you were like 11 years old when this started.

It's pretty dead now so pick a class that can solo. Also, take a look at Monsters and Memories. It's a new game in development that is trying to recapture the classic EQ feel.
